The Perverse Incentives of Climate Integration: Why Researchers Can't Deliver What Funding Institutions Demand
Research funders increasingly require integration of future climate projections across health, agriculture, fisheries, and development economics, creating perverse incentives: institutions demand what current climate science cannot reliably deliver. I use “perverse incentive” here in its standard economic sense: an incentive that unintentionally produces counterproductive behavior, rather than implying ill will on the part of funders. Climate mod…
Science in the Age of Computer Simulation
Computer simulation was first pioneered as a scientific tool in meteorology and nuclear physics in the period following World War II, but it has grown rapidly to become indispensible in a wide variety of scientific disciplines, including astrophysics, high-energy physics, climate science, engineering, ecology, and economics. Digital computer simulation helps study phenomena of great complexity, but how much do we know about the limits and possibi…
